This is a decent university.
Placements: In this college, not many companies visit campus as our seniors are struggling for getting jobs. Companies are not taking a serious interest in taking interviews. If students are brilliant, then they can find a solution to get over it.
Infrastructure: The hostel is good and the fees levied are also as per the standard of hostel facilities. It provides free Wi-Fi, whole daylight, and a pleasant environment. Facilities in the course are not attractive, air-conditioners are not working, and lights are also not working properly in this college.
Faculty: Faculty members are average. There are two types of faculty members, one is permanent other is a guest. The guest teacher is not as per with permanent. Students have to pay more attention to self-study. But students have power to replace the teachers which they do not like.
Other: In this college, fests, get-togethers, abhiyanjanaa, and sports days are conducted.

It is the best government university in greater Noida.
Placements: There were around 50 students in our batch but as it was bachelor's of arts in political science students did not got placements.
Infrastructure: The whole university has centralised air-conditioner, one big central library, and one 24X7 library for hostel students, the classroom also has centralised air-conditioner, smart board, blackboard. I did not stay in the hostel as it was not compulsory for our course but the hostel and mess of each hostel were very good, and the quality of food was average. There was a separate department for medical facilities but there was no pharmacy in it. For sports, there were games like basketball and badminton court, football court, volleyball court, cricket stadium, hockey court, etc.
Faculty: There were qualified teachers i.e all were Ph.D. holders from JNU, our HOD organised national seminars each year in which various renowned scholars from different parts of the country came and shared with students their knowledge on the topics current as well as static. The course curriculum was very relevant it was according to the present syllabus followed by Delhi University.

Elegance of Buddha Launched into 511 acres.
Placements: It varies from 10 LPA being the highest to 6 LPA being the lowest, as it is a newer college in comparison. Internships are provided easily as it is a government college, so it gets the benefits of being one and also gets prioritized by other companies. May become IAS and income tax officers.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is all I can talk about all day and night; it’s top-notch with the highest quality auditoriums and sports facilities and a beautifully built environment. Hostels are great too; there are many wings of colleges. The total area of the college is 511 acres, i.e., the second largest in India.
Faculty: Discipline is maintained, and no cheating or misleading is promoted. Mid-semesters are easier than the end semesters, and the passing percentage is 40%, i.e., standard. Teaching quality needs more work than just reading; it needs depth, which can always be improved to benefit students.
Other: Had a hobby in politics since my early teen days. Some more passionate students. Endless fests and events and crazy scholarships.

Big campus and within budget.
Placements: In my course, we are not given any placement opportunities because most of us prepare to pursue a master's. Even my batchmates are either preparing for CUET-PG civil services exams or trying to shift to a different field to enter the job market and land a good-paying job.
Infrastructure: The hostel is good considering the fees we pay and everything we get single occupancy rooms 2nd year onwards. Freshers have double occupancy rooms and they are also quite spacious. We receive an almirah, study table, chair, bookshelf and sometimes a side table of the study table doesn't come with drawers. Bedding we have to arrange on our own. We have a shopping complex with adequate food joints, printouts, and stationery shops. Since it's a fully residential campus, the faculty housing is inside the campus. We have a hospital within walking distance.
Faculty: Since the strength of classes is on the lower side, teachers pay attention and surprisingly know you by name. This adds to a personalized experience in the classroom. I chose this university because its curriculum covers most of what you will need to prepare for your civil services.
